School starts this week and that means that Rosh Hashanah can’t be that far behind! I used Jaydee’s fun sketch at The Paper Players to make a Rosh Hashanah card.

It’s card sketch week over at MDS Monday, and believe it or not, I actually have a card! Okay, it’s a photo card, but it’s still a card. Hanukkah is super early this year. It starts the night before Thanksgiving, so it is definitely not too soon to be thinking about Hanukkah cards! Photocards are … Continue reading »

Rosh Hashanah is in a little over a week, so I used the latest Fab Friday sketch to make another card for it. I used the same motif with the Jewish Star that I used on the Bat Mitzvah Card the other day, but I changed the colors, and added the apple for Rosh Hashanah. … Continue reading »
